Default Delta Kitchen Faucet/Sprayer Problem

Hi, all;

I've gotten good answers here before, but I haven't posted in a long
time.

This one should be easy -- We installed a Delta combination kitchen
faucet/sprayer a while back, and for months it worked perfectly. When I
used the sprayer, the tap would stop completely and divert the flow
entirely to the sprayer.

Not any more; now the tap stays on at reduced flow and the force of the
sprayer is much less.

Can someone tell me what caused the change in the way the Delta works
and how I can fix it? It has to be a problem nearly everyone
experienced sometime.

Thanks,
JPM


Hi.
Most likely you need a diverter.
You have to take tap apart to get at it. Pull old one out and install new
one. HD, or Lowe will have it. Costs ~5.00.



The actual part that does the function hides inside the round stem.

You have to remove the spigot to get to it. Just a simple neoprene part.
